The 2005 Chevrolet Equinox requires ATF IV or GM T-IV/T4 transmission fluid for its engine. Never use dexron fluid as it can cause serious damage to your transmission, resulting in the need for replacement. You can easily purchase this transmission fluid at most auto parts stores and reputable online retailers in quart-sized containers, usually priced between $4 and $12 per bottle. With a transmission capacity of 11.2 quarts, it is recommended to buy 10 or 11 quarts. To change the fluid, first check the fill level, then use a funnel to pour the new fluid into the reservoir. Replace the cap and close the hood to complete the fluid replacement process on your own.
